Security forces to enforce ceasefire
Kohima: In the wake of a clash between Naga factions, the State government has asked police and paramilitary forces to enforce strict ceasefire rules on the ground.
The State government, after an emergency Cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio on Friday night, directed the police, CRPF and Assam Rifles to enforce the Standard Operation Procedure issued by the Union Home Ministry which empowers police and security forces to take action against violators of the agreed truce.
At least 14 cadre of GPRN/NSCN led by S. S. Khaplang were killed after a clash with rival NSCN(I-M) cadre on the outskirts of Dimapur on Friday. The district administration, which clamped prohibitory orders in Greater Dimapur area, requisitioned additional police, CRPF and Assam Riles personnel and deployed them in vulnerable areas in and around Dimapur to prevent any untoward incident.
State DGP J. Changkija and Nagaland Commissioner H. K. Khulu also rushed to Dimapur to monitor the situation which was described as “tense but under control.” — PTI
